     =================================================================

     Fidonet Related Websites

     One approach to tracking and viewing Fidonet related websites is to
     visit webrings that specialize in Fidonet.

     A webring is a method where sites having a common theme advertise
     other websites with simailar themes.  The advantage to the webring
     concept is that in theory, the sites have an interest in maintaining
     an accuate listing and can modify their own listings on a site by
     site basis.

     It appears that there are two fidonet webrings....the long-running
     system at http://b.webring.com/hub?ring=fidonet and another at
     http://www.fidonet.us/fidoring/

     The ring at webring.com is larger, but forces the viewer to look at
     google ads panels. The smaller ring at fidonet.us does not depend on
     adverstising revenue from ads.

     Sysops with Fidonet related websites should consider joining one or
     both rings.

                            How to Submit an Article

     If you wish to submit an article for inclusion in the Fidonews, here
     are some guidelines, if you send it as an attached file; the preferred
     method if you want reasonable control over how the published article
     will appear in the Fidonews:

     a) Plain ASCII text. If you could type it on your keyboard, it's
        probably quite OK. No line may be longer than 70 characters.

     b) Put a title to the article. Put the title in two times. The first
        time, on the first line, with an * before it. The second time, on
        the second line, without the * and centered. This will help in the
        format since the title with the * is removed and used in the index,
        the second line will become the headline. On the third line, put
        your name and FidoNet address, present or former. If former, you
        may want to add some other address where you can be reached for
        personal comments.

     c) Deadline for article submission is Sunday, 22:00 UTC.

     Help the Editor by following the above guides. Below are some subjects
     and the file extension for the article as set in the configuration
     file for the making of the Fidonews. Please help by putting the file
     extension of the correct subject on the file name if known.

     If you don't know or are not sure, send the article anyway. Put a .TXT
     on it and I'll try to figure out where it should be in the Fidonews.

     If you follow these simple guidelines, there should be little problem
     in getting your article published. If your submission is too far out
     of specs for the Fidonews, it will be returned to you and/or a message
     sent informing you of the problem. This DOES NOT mean that your
     article is not accepted. It means that there is something in it that I
     can not fix and I need your help on it.

     Send articles via e-mail or netmail, file attach or message to:

              Björn Felten
     Fidonet  2:2/2
     E-Mail   bfelten @ telia dot com

     IMPORTANT! If you send the article via e-mail, make sure you put the
                word "fidonews" somewhere in the subject line! That way it
                will always pass the spam filter, ending up in the proper
                folder.

     Please include a message, telling me that you have sent an article.
     That way I will know to look for it.
